Men Vs Women

[J-Luck]

seriously... women do much worse in spatial reasoning tasks and mental rotation tasks than men...

but men seem to have worser (lol) verbal acuity, and don't do as well as women in solving formulaic mathematical problems...(but we tend to do better at solving novel math problems...with the exception of myself...if it has numbers, it may as well be greek)

Spanks for supporting my arguement with outside sources. I'm usually too lazy to SHOW why I'm right, I figure, why waste my time if I'm right? lol.

And just as there are exeptional women in the area of spacial and mechanical intelligence, there are men who happen to test higher in areas traditionally dominated by women. We are merely speaking in generic terms.

Ofcourse the man would win, if you think a woman would win you´re .....not very smart hehe.

Men are faster, stronger and have better reflexes than woman. Just look at games like Counter Strike, men totaly dominates that game and that should prove that men have better reflexes than woman.

I don´t think that I have to explain why men are faster and stronger...

After arguments put forth by Mike, Tim, Excessive, Garland, and myself, I'm not sure why you would even imput with something so trivial.

Don't forget that women perform better on memory tests and have much higher fine motor skill ability.

Hey I just wanted to state my opinion, that men beat woman in almost any kind of sport, physical/skill/reflex demanding.

why do Mongolian wrestlers wear sleeves but no jackets?

Just look at games like Counter Strike, men totaly dominates that game and that should prove that people who play alot of Counter Strike don't go outside very often

A great deal, indeed. And of course, as we both know, hitting a pad is merely the start. Two moving people, with some training, the intelligence comes into play even more so.

I totally disagree with that. Little kids can hit pads. People without any mathematical knowledge whatsoever can hit pads. But I'm curious, did you watch the video and look at the pictures of women beating men in Thaiboxing that I posted? Do you really think it was due to their superior spatial and mechanical intelligence?

And with grappling, forget it.

She's not the only one.

Juliana Borges tied for 1st in the mens ADVANCED division at NAGA one year.

Leilana Akiyama outwrestles boys: http://fhsw.com/Leilani%20Akiyama%20Page.htm

Adreianna Jenkins has fought and beat guys too, in grappling.

Kelly Kobold suplexed a guy, threw him for five, slammed him on his head, let him get to his knees, locked in a standing guillotine, dropped back to guard and choked him out.

Kelyn was a silver medalist in several MEN'S lightweight divisions

Women fighting men: No, not all of them lost:

Oh I know, I'm one of those women who isn't good at parking, but you didn't have to tease us about it.

As a random side note: studies show (don't remember the name of the researcher/book I found this in, but I can look it up if you like) that in any random physical activity, a human male will do better than a human female with one exception: long distance swimming. Apparently if you take a bunch of chicks, and a bunch of dudes, and make them swim, the chicks can go for longer. This says nothing about taking a single woman and training the crap out of her in something, but there you go.

Ahhhh, so your argument is based on showing that there can be exeptions. lol very nice. I'm done debating you now. I've proven my point beyond a reasonable doubt, and you've shown that this is personal for you...

Good luck!

Kind of odd for you to say this is personal for me when I already said in my first post on this thread that the guy would normally win... I just think it's due to men being better able to handle blunt trauma and physical/hormonal factors, not spatial and mechanical reasoning. It'd be fun, though. Maybe they could use that for the next UFC: pick team members based on math tests instead of fighting skill.

I would be interested in seeing your studies on the correlation between spatial and mechanical reasoning and fighting ability... especially if you have any studies by psychologists (you know, those who are qualified to interpret and determine the functions of intelligence).

[hEmPY]

woman + tactics = woman winz

LOL

[hEmPY]

LOL

j-luck you love playin with rep points huh boy?

[Little Apple]

Wow, you know, I can't always read your posts hempy, and I'm pretty sure you don't always use English, but you make a good point. With a good coach and an understanding of your opponent's strengths and weaknesses, a woman could probably win more often than not. That's if she could be aggressive enough, and they were in the same weight class/ woman was a bit bigger.

[treelizard]

I just don't think there's anything particularly special or unique about the women that I listed who beat the guys in those fights (with the exception of Kelly Kobold, who crushes bones and faces). They trained hard and stayed in the fight. I think men are more likely to win, but don't count the women out.
